No wonder the X86 chips suck so badly. (sorry for HTML mail... I
can't undo it, perhaps demime will catch it.)

"One chip architect working for a third party firm said that if Intel
decided to take this action, it resembled the i432 project the firm
eventually canned, after it saw some light which made it invent the
8086 microprocessor. Two engineers at Intel managed to cobble
together the 8086 in a mere three weeks. The rest is history... ."
